From Nancy Piper's Marshall Co., IL site -
Mrs. Eliza Smith Wheeler Hoyt Taken From the Henry Republican August21, 1879
On Saturday morning last Mrs. Matthew Hoyt passed from earth. Herdisease was dysentery, her illness being but a week. Her birth placewas Russia, Herkinner (sic) county, N.Y., near Rome, where she marriedMatthew Hoyt of a neighboring town. Mr. Hoyt accompanies Silas Lockeand family to Illinois in 1839, his family following soon after,occupying for a couple of years a log cabin on the farm now owned byEd. Sparling at Snachwine Lake. Subsequently Mr. Hoyt bought land neartown, and for the last 33 years Mrs. Hoyt has been the occupant of thehomestead, where she ended this mortal life.
Her husband, Matthew Hoyt, died a few years ago, both living to thatvenerable epoch which scores three years and ten. Five of sevenchildren survive the parents - two sons and three daughters. Thedaughters - Mrs. Charles Fulford of Dixon, Mrs. Frank Sapp ofBushnell, and the unmarried daughter living with the widowed mother,were present at the funeral on Sunday afternoon, the services beingconducted by Rev. M. Moore of the Presbyterian church, from the house.
There was a large gathering of the friends and neighbors to pay thelast offices for respect to one they had associated with of 30 yearsand upwards, and of whom they cheriched high regard. Of this number wenotices Mrs. Chauncey Hoyt, Mrs. John Locke, Mrs. Orsemus Culver, Mrs.William Gallaher all of whose heads were silvered with age, and wemight repeat the list ad infinitum had we space. The sons Frederickand Ephraim, residents of Iowa, were unable to be present at theobsequies. Mrs. Hoyt was one of the pioneers of the west side, and wasone of the few left who endured the trials and privations of the earlydays of the settlement of the Prairie State. She rounded the cycle ofa good old age ere she was gathered to the life to come.
